FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do Tecplast warranties work depending on the models?

The warranty period varies according to the technical composition and the intended use of the fabric:


  • 5-year warranty tarpaulins: Applies to our FP320 shade nets, our MP460 micro-perforated fabrics, and our LP506 waterproof PVC tarpaulins.
  • 7-year warranty tarpaulins: Applies to our SP500 reinforced transparent PVC tarpaulin made in France.
  • 8-year warranty tarpaulins: Applies to the LP640 waterproof and anti-UV PVC tarpaulin.
  • 10-year warranty tarpaulins: Applies to our professional-grade XP640 range Tecplast PVC tarpaulins made in France.
  • 15-year warranty tarpaulins: Applies to our professional-grade XP680M2 and XP900 range Tecplast PVC tarpaulins made in France. These ultra-dense fabrics are designed to withstand permanent exposure to weather conditions throughout the season (rain, wind, cold, heat, sun…).

What factors allow Tecplast PVC tarpaulins to last over 15 years outdoors?

The exceptional resistance of the XP680M2 range tarpaulins is based on their high-end manufacturing:

  • Fire retardant according to the M2 standard: certified by the LNE (National Laboratory of Metrology and Testing).
  • Made in France: a guarantee of high quality and safety in all your personal and professional work.
  • Sun protection: filters a portion of the sun's rays while diffusing daylight.
  • High resistance: tear-proof, waterproof, and rot-proof, the truck-type tarpaulin is the ideal solution to protect against bad weather or accidental damage.

Why is buying a long-lasting tarpaulin more cost-effective than a standard tarpaulin?

Although the initial investment is higher, choosing a tarpaulin guaranteed for up to 15 years offers an unbeatable cost per year of use. Instead of replacing an entry-level tarpaulin every 1 to 2 years (accumulating replacement costs and installation time), you install a permanent Tecplast solution that secures your equipment over the very long term.

For what applications do you recommend using a 10 or 15-year warranty tarpaulin?

These professional-quality fabrics are recommended for permanent installations or those subject to high stress:

  • Roofing and framework cover: For long-term construction sites or permanent waterproofing.
  • Outdoor landscaping: Pergola covers, garden sheds, carports…
  • Equipment protection: Winter pool covers, trailer protection, agricultural machinery, and outdoor industrial storage.

What accessories should I use to preserve the warranty and longevity of my tarpaulin?

To guarantee perfect hold for 15 years, the fastening system is crucial. It is highly recommended to use elastic bungee cords that pass through the tarpaulin's eyelets. The elasticity of the bungee cord absorbs the force of the wind and prevents sudden tension on the anchor points. Also, make sure to tilt the tarpaulin slightly during installation to prevent the formation of stagnant rainwater pockets.
